Have you ever wondered what your life’s purpose is?
In September 2005 I realized my life’s
purpose. Once I felt it, I knew there was nothing that could stop me. I
had a vision of starting a publication dedicated to Chicagoland
families. I wanted it to inspire, help families in need and be a
credible resource, something families could turn to for valuable
information, support and ideas on how to spend quality time together.
With that dream, Family Time Magazine was born to serve the City of
Chicago and the south, west and north suburbs.
We are now celebrating our 8th anniversary in
print with a readership of more than 100,000, and in December 2012 we
launched an online edition. That means our Chicagoland magazine is now
available to anyone, anywhere at anytime! Technology continues to change
and we are changing right with it so we can be there for you when you
need us.
Our website has become an extension of the
magazine with more than 75,000 hits per month. It is a valuable resource
for families and a wonderful platform for our clients to advertise their
products and services. We appreciate the opportunity to continue serving
you, our families. We encourage you to share your thoughts and opinions.
Thank you for your support!

Why
Should I become an Expo Exhibitor?
During the course of one day, thousands of
people from the Chicagoland area and the surrounding suburbs will stop
at your booth to familiarize themselves with the product or service that
you are offering. This holds true for any of our Expos. Your business
cannot help but increase and prosper with this kind of exposure. All
attendees are already interested in your area of specialty. You will
have a captive audience all day long and can even have your own raffle.
This will help you to generate a mailing list for contacting potential
clients after the Expo.
